February Sleevers



Recommended Posts

I hope that this is going to be the biggest month. They have moved me to Feb 1 due to my stuggle with cigerettes.. I think I have finally broke the chains that has made it so hard to quit..I look forward to everyday and all the challenges it gives. I start my pre op diet on the 18th of January. I have been soo struggling with all my feelings inside about this and the surgeon has helped me with all the unanswered question.. Thanks to all that has supported and been there with good advice..I look forward to feb 1st..

Giving up smoking is so hard I was only able to quit on Sept 09 because I became pregnant. Look at you making two big life changes that's wonderful

That is so great!!! I was dissapointed that they moved up my surgery until February. He told me that they would do a urine test on me to make sure that I was 100% nicotine free. Its was really my fault but you learn by making mistakes. I am in the process of talking to one of my doctors patients who has had the surgery. I will get some good insight from him I hope. February is going to be a awesome Month for Sleevers. :D

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
